Moscow: Russian President Vladimir Putin has won the presidential election. After winning the elections he has warned the western countries. Putin warned the West on Monday that a direct conflict between Russia and the US-led NATO military alliance would mean the Earth is one step away from World War III. But hardly anyone wants such a scenario, he said.
According to news agency Reuters, the Ukraine war has created the deepest crisis in Moscow’s relations with the West since the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. French President Emmanuel Macron said last month that he could not rule out the deployment of ground troops in Ukraine in the future. Many Western countries have distanced themselves from it, while others, particularly in Eastern Europe, have expressed support.

Putin took a dig on this matter
Putin has often warned about the dangers of nuclear war. But he says that he never felt the need to use nuclear weapons in Ukraine. Putin quipped when asked by Reuters about Macron’s comments and the risk and possibility of conflict between Russia and NATO. He said that ‘everything is possible in the modern world.’
“It is clear to everyone that this will be one step away from a full-scale Third World War,” Putin told reporters after the biggest-ever victory in Soviet-Russian history. I think hardly anyone is interested in it. Putin said NATO troops were already in Ukraine, adding that Russians had learned both English and French, spoken on the battlefield. He said, ‘There is nothing good in this, first of all for them, because they are dying there and in large numbers.’
